Awesome! You always share the greatest stuff Neb! Thanks.

Also, I've noticed when someone is trying to put something out there that is blantanly false the mods close it right away.

If you mean how do we know whether those trying to teach is truth, then we need to be berean and search the Scripture ourselves to see if it measures up.

how bout this? here I was really interested so I searched it out.

Happy Birthday Brother!

I don't think its wrong from my interpretation of the Word, Im not worshiping these things. I sometimes wear a cross that my husband gave me that has a mustard seen set in acrylic. It is a reminder to have faith and also a great conversation/door opener. I have an ichthus ornament hanging from my rearview mirror which reminds me I am still a witness of Christ even when Im driving so I'd better be a responsible driver. We have an olivewood cross in our home that serves as a reminder and finally various tapestry and wall decor with Scripture. I haven't seen any harm in these things and feel no conviction whatsoever.

Spot On!

OneLight and Believer gave great advice, let the Holy Spirit lead always, beside that what kind of evangalism do you feel called to do? Street, visitation, workplace, ect?

lomi, that is beautiful. I am keeping you in prayer.

Only the Holy Spirit can move these people, as long as the body does their job to edify and the Preacher preaches the Word of God, we have to leave their hearts in Gods hands.

I think UFO sightings are either A. A Hallucination B. A weather balloon or government projects or C. Demonic forces, so be careful what you look into as to not be led astray.

Unfortunatly thats the society we live in, our church does background checks for all children's ministries and sadly men are not allowed to work in the nursery even with another woman. It's just that in today's world you can't be too careful.

Made me dizzy, but that is really cool!

Hiring in what capacity? I mean, if the attorney or custodian of a Christian (or Jewish, muslim, etc.) church, synogogue, mosque or whatever is a hindu or wiccan, no big deal. Although most people wouldn't want to work in an institution whose doctrines were completely contrary to their own, IMO. But if you're talking about the pastor, imam or whatever....they would pretty much have to be of the faith they're working for. I don't get the point of this. Where did you hear it? I dont understand this either, as MG touched on, hiring someone who is not leading worship might be a good thing as there would be many opportunities to witness, but I can't imagine a church being forced to allow a spirtual leader whose ideals go against church doctrine Could you give a link One Light?

God will weed out the tares.

Thank Heavens this can't be done. These scientist dont have the foresight to see the potential problems in this?

I thought this was really neat. link

A return of the Fairness Doctrine would be devastating to Christian broadcasters by putting the federal government in charge of telling broadcasters what to air. Such a move would put the federal government in control of dictating the content of what

Today's Church "And they, continuing daily with one accord in the temple, and breaking bread from house to house, did eat their meat with gladness and singleness of heart, Praising God, and having favour with all the people. And the Lord added to the church daily such as should be saved" Acts 2:46-47 And The Treasure Payed For Her "Take heed therefore unto yourselves, and to all the flock, over the which the Holy Ghost hath made you overseers, to feed the church of God, which he hath purchased with his own blood" Acts 20:28 Bible Check "Thy word have I hid in mine heart, that I might not sin against thee" Psalms 119:11 Heart Check "Jesus answered and said unto him, If a man love me, he will keep my words: and my Father will love him, and we will come unto him, and make our abode with him" John 14:23 Prayer Check We Know Not What We Should Pray For Prayer Really Is Nobody's Business But God's Business "And when thou prayest, thou shalt not be as the hypocrites are: for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and in the corners of the streets, that they may be seen of men. Verily I say unto you, They have their reward. But thou, when thou prayest, enter into thy closet, and when thou hast shut thy door, pray to thy Father which is in secret; and thy Father which seeth in secret shall reward thee openly. But when ye pray, use not vain repetitions, as the heathen do: for they think that they shall be heard for their much speaking. Be not ye therefore like unto them: for your Father knoweth what things ye have need of, before ye ask him." Matthew 6:5-8 And Trusting The Holy Ghost Is Never Disrespectful "Likewise the Spirit also helpeth our infirmities: for we know not what we should pray for as we ought: but the Spirit itself maketh intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered. And he that searcheth the hearts knoweth what is the mind of the Spirit, because he maketh intercession for the saints according to the will of God" Romans 8:26-27 And Dear Gerald The Best Is Yet To Come "But as it is written, Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love him" 1 Corinthians 3:9 The Work Of The Spirit In Prayer Is Biblical "Praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all saints" Ephesians 6:18 So Pray Evermore "Pray without ceasing" 1 Thessalonians 5:17 And Stifle Not "Quench not the Spirit" 1 Thessalonians 5:19 The Spirit "Knowing this first, that no prophecy of the scripture is of any private interpretation" 2 Peter 1:20 Dear One Be Blessed Beloved Of The KING The LORD bless thee, and keep thee: The LORD make his face shine upon thee, and be gracious unto thee: The LORD lift up his countenance upon thee, and give thee peace. And they shall put my name upon the children of Israel; and I will bless them. Numbers 6:24-27 Love, Your Brother Joe Amen. When we pray some things might go unspoken in public prayer but when we are praying from our heart God hears all, for He knows our heart. We pray to our Father not to those around us. One of my favorite lines from a movie is in "Sheffey" when brother Sheffey goes to get a license to preach and the fellow giving the licenses says, Sheffey people say you are strange when you pray, you sound as though you are actually talking to God.

So cool neb! Thanks!!

Is this about President Obama?

same. Interesting that the inaugural prayer contains words from a song.

This is my problem with the NIV : Isaiah 14:12...compare to Revelation 22:16. I think somebody really goofed in the translation.

Perhaps because he died young, because of God's mercy, he was spared from the suffering his family would endure? God's mercy was the good thing found in him? Interesting topic Dave.
